I think even at 160, he's still good enough but he was definitely better as a Welterweight ... I don't think I'd pick Vito to beat that same...
Williams was a lazy bum
Basilio was awesome, way better than Vito
Hatton was an eyesore... Hated him, his fights sucked
Vito would batter you and then pour hot pasta sauce all over your prone body with a little basil thrown in there
exactly... talented, athletic but very easily hurt, dropped, wobbled
Antuofermo was a lot better than Troy fucking Dorsey, though... c'mon
He could've been for sure but he was stupid and arrogant
Jeez the Sun is unreal
Real tough fight... Williams was a bad motherfucker but so was Mayweather... Good style contrast in this fight... Could go either way
Especially back then when protecting the "0" wasn't the be-all/end-all... You got matched tougher than you do now
Competitive for a round, maybe Williams never beat anybody... He was a guy that KOd clubfighters and got torched when he stepped up... And that...
Please, you don't even watch boxing.. you watch your favorite fighter or fighters Ali was better in 1967 than he was in 1971, but his opponents...

They are all still tough fights and he may still lose some of them, despite Sly Hauser's assurances to the contrary These guys were a lot better...
yup... one of a kind
yeah, he's the rarest of stars... he came along at exactly the right time and had the right looks, the right personality and style
perfect post
:l2:
My godfather met him once with a bunch of his friends... I can't remember the exact circumstance, but it was in the city sometime in the early 70s...
no doubt. It's all part of the legend... The first and third are two of the greatest fights ever, for sure...
Of course it was, he wanted the fight, it was about competition and the sport... It also wasn't insulting or publicly humiliating or a...
who said anything about "technically"? The word being used is "SKILLED" Ronnie Harris was 10 times more technically superb than Muhammad Ali who...
Stop being retarded... Frazier helped the guy out, lobbied for him to get his license back and got stabbed in the back ... Anything he said to Ali...
I'm still looking for the victories that illustrate Norris was "clearly better"
oh fuck off His public treatment of the man was inexcusable and despicable
wald pussy did not have more "skills", he just did things more the way you are "supposed" to... Vitali was far superior and never required...
Vitali was less conventional than his brother, not less skilled... He was also way, way better and would've kicked his bitchass brother all over...
